Upon further investigation the name was rausb0. The rt73 was setup in /etc/modprobe.conf. So is the name going to be wlan0 from now on? The short version: I am stuck on a project where the last guy setup everything, didn't document anything, and left. I am now trying to figure all of this stuff out. I am stuck using Slackware. A hybrid of 9 and 10. I am a Fedora user so very little is where I except it to be. I am trying to figure everything out and move to centos with a 2.6.24.x kernel (needed for the new hardware this monstrosity of an application is moving to).
